Browse 75mm rental
The shelf covers the full Simera-C lineup. Five focal lengths (21mm, 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 75mm) at T1.5 across the line, all native Sony E mount, all full-frame coverage. Each lens uses a 16-blade circular iris for round bokeh, a 210-degree focus throw with engraved markings for repeatable focus pulls, and an all-metal barrel rated for production wear. The aperture ring is mechanical with click stops and the focus ring is fully manual with no electronic contacts, which means the lens reads as a clean manual prime on every Sony E body. Pair the 35mm and 50mm for a two-lens cine kit covering dialogue and portrait, or build a four-lens narrative kit (21mm, 35mm, 50mm, 75mm) that covers wide establishing through tight reaction. The Simera-C line is the compact, lightweight pick for FX3 and A7 series shooters who want cine character at $50 per lens per day without going PL.

💬 Common questions
Will Thypoch Simera-C lenses work on my Sony FX3, FX6, A7 IV, or A7S III?
Yes. Every Simera-C in the kit ships native Sony E mount. The lens drops onto Sony FX3, FX6, FX9, FX30, A7 IV, A7S III, A7R V, A1, A6700 bodies with no adapter, no rehousing, no electronic contacts to worry about. Aperture is mechanical and focus is manual, so the body sees the lens as a fully manual prime and you set exposure on the camera side.
These are manual focus only. How does that affect run-and-gun shoots?
The Simera-C line is fully manual focus with engraved focus and aperture markings on the barrel. For controlled narrative, music video, gimbal work, and locked-off interviews, manual focus is the workflow. For run-and-gun work where eye AF would carry the shot, pair these with the Sony body's focus peaking and magnify-on-record. Most Toronto shooters reach for the 35mm or 50mm at T2 or slower for handheld coverage. If autofocus is non-negotiable, look at our Sony G Master and Sigma Art native E options on the photo lens shelf.
Thypoch Simera-C vs DZOFilm Vespid 2 vs Sony G Master: which set should I rent?
Thypoch Simera-C is the compact cine-style choice for Sony E shooters who want T1.5 character at $50 per lens per day with native E mount and no adapter in the path. DZOFilm Vespid 2 is the PL-mount cine option at T1.9 with hybrid Super 35 / full-frame coverage, designed for cinema bodies and PL workflows. Sony G Master is the autofocus and image stabilization choice for hybrid stills and video on A7-series bodies. Pick Simera-C for cine aesthetic on a Sony body without going PL, Vespid 2 for cinema-camera PL workflows, and G Master when AF speed matters more than barrel feel.
How heavy are these on a gimbal? Will they balance on a Ronin or RS 4 Pro?
The Simera-C primes weigh between 470g and 700g depending on focal length, which is well inside the payload range for a DJI RS 4 Pro, RS 3 Pro, or Ronin 2 carrying a Sony FX3 or A7 series body. The all-metal barrel and front-heavy weight distribution actually helps with manual focus pulls because the focus ring has enough mass to feel deliberate. We recommend rebalancing the gimbal each time you swap focal lengths, and pairing the kit with a follow-focus motor if you are doing gimbal pulls inside Liberty Village or Distillery District location work.
Do these cover full-frame Sony bodies edge to edge?
Yes. The Simera-C line is a full-frame design, and the image circle covers the 35mm sensor on every Sony A7 series, FX3, FX6, FX9, and A1 body in the inventory. The same lens crops cleanly to APS-C on a Sony FX30 or a6700 with the standard 1.5x factor. There is no full-frame vs APS-C ambiguity in this kit, so glass moves between full-frame and crop bodies on the same shoot day without any image circle issues.
What ships with each Thypoch Simera-C lens rental?
Every Simera-C lens leaves the shelf with the front and rear cap, the original Thypoch lens case, and a clean front element. The barrel ships ready to mount: native Sony E, all-metal construction, mechanical aperture ring with click stops, manual focus ring with engraved markings. No batteries, no electronic gear teeth to install, no adapter step required for Sony bodies. Need a follow-focus motor or matte box? Add at the booking step and we will preconfigure the build.
